Have confidence in your own spiritual potentiality, your ability to find your own unique way. Learn from others certainly and use what you find useful, but also learn to trust your own inner wisdom. Have courage. Be awake and aware. Remember too that Buddhism is not about being a Buddhist; that is, obtaining a new identity tag. Nor is it about collecting head-knowledge, practices and techniques. It is ultimately about letting go of all forms and concepts and becoming free.--John Snelling, Elements of Buddhism
James: This is some of the best advice for those who are looking into following the Buddhist path and an excellent reminder to long-time practitioners. It is also great advice for those of other faiths and spiritual paths.
~Peace to all beings~
